Imported Korean Coca-Cola

I spotted this at a Korean market this afternoon: among the various bottled and canned Korean drinks was everyday Coca-Cola, but clearly meant for the domestic Korean market...and puzzlingly imported into Singapore. At first, I wondered if maybe this was similar to the cult-like following for Mexican Coke, but the label (translated into English, anyway) said that it used fructose, so it didn't seem to be a sugar thing. Well, I didn't try it to know if there were anything special about it, but it just seems like it was brought in for the sake of it. And yes, they had Korean Pepsi available too.
